Devo ter me estressado com medo dos mísseis explodirem mais que os próprios soldados

some of these guys were acting like this is a daily occurrence, half expected one of them to say
“aw man, they found MORE bombs”
“aw man, they found MORE bombs”

This is not a good film but I can't deny the fact that I still enjoyed it on an ironic level. Its very obvious that this is one of Tarkovsky's earlier works because the amateurishness shines very heavily in this film. I must say it is very forgettable but the plot was rather intruiging and the execution isn't great but still watchable. There isn't too much to say about this film so I'll leave it here. Meh.
